(It’s been so long since I’ve posted anything! Just to recap, the only things that happened since my post on November 30th are both mine and my brother’s birthdays passing.)
Sometimes I feel like the best writing prompts are the simple, one-sentence prompts. I find them most inspiring, and they can go in so many different directions. They’re even more interesting when in dialogue form, too!
I’m breaking the one-sentence rule a few times, sorry. (;
- “What does ‘humans’ mean?”
- “Dad, why is that boy’s hair so weird?”
- “Something has always been off about the olive-green house across the street …”
- “Be careful, he bites.”
- “I never was any good at dragon-riding sports, yet here I am.”
- “You’re lucky no one saw you cheating.”
- “Dude, your dragon is so freaking fat.”
- “Well, my phone died, so we can’t keep tracking him down tonight. Wanna try again tomorrow?”
- “Thanks for the offer, but I’d rather not freeze to death.”
- “Only an idiot would fall in love with someone as deadly as me.”
- “Wait, wait, wait. So your name isn’t really Molly?”
- “Hello, just tell us your favorite color and we can get you all signed in.”
- “No, it’s spelled with two A’s; my dad was a little drunk when he named me.”
- “I am willing to trade four sapphires for the child.”
- “There are only two things I can’t survive without – my sister, and pine trees.”
- “I’m sending out a distress call. How do you spell ‘evacuate?’ “
- “We only have brownies and phoenixes this month, because dragons, unicorns and gryphons are top-sellers around Christmas.”
- “Are you kidding? That was about as unexpected as rain in Seattle, dude.”
- “Please don’t do that, I like my hamster alive.”
- “The FBI probably isn’t too fond of you right now.”
